Monroe @ Shelby

Monroe is an enigma. The school that seems to always have close to or over a thousand students who still end up in 2A constantly. But they also tend to shit the bed on the road and lose. (Bunker Hill last year).
I think they are a lot better at home. I still think they should be favored in this game. The Monroe QB looks quick enough to offset the good front 7 for Shelby

Just read on "X" from the guy who covers Union County high school sports that Monroe 4 Star DB Jordan Young has switched his commitment from Clemson to Michigan.
 
That's true, remember few years back Crowder from Monroe made good choice going to Duke. Played in NFL
Yep, he got a lot more playing time and more views from NFL scouts by going there instead of riding the bench a couple years at a major college football school.

Watched a few games of Monroe
1st Porter Ridge, and Forest Hills were 2 best teams they played this year.
With P. Ridge going 5-6 and FH still playing.
I see Monroe gets lots of penalties.
Also there special teams is good, they either get punt return or kick off return in each game.
You have to wrap up playing them if not they make u pay.
Qb looks to throw shorter passes and let 2-4 and 5 go too work.
I do see they can be ran on, most up the gut.
Alot of their points are off your mistakes.

With that i still feel if we play fb with out mistakes and penalties we will be fine.
No. 1 rb should be back, but our no. 2 had over 135 yards this week..
Shelby has 5 good rec. That D-1 db cant cover them all.
Our Qb will have to play lights out..
Notice he looked alot better this week on that foot.
Should ne great game.

Every body wanna talk about Monroe classification.. out of our almost 1200 students 800 is Hispanic and those kids don’t play football or basketball.. so out of the other 400 Monroe is only picking from prolly 200 boys to play football.. the other 200 is girls.. So to be honest Monroe really playing 1A ball if you look at it.. Monroe just has some dawgs in their little small community and a great Head Coach to compete…

You, 2nd, and TRUEd ought to get together and write a book of essays. All three of you would love it.

That was my point bro. If I tell an honest opinion I may get in trouble for not saying Shelby will destroy them or win. lol I already said I would not be surprised if you won but it depends on a few things and adjustments. For the record I would not be mad or let down in any way if you guys won that game. My team lost but had a good season considering a lot of things and I am in no way a hater on success. I also have no hate on Monroe. Solid team and if they go all the way, they are due for it considering prior year let downs they have had.
 
I know what u mean, just pickimg fun..
Going be tall task, but the kids are up too it...
We are excitrd to still be moving on to this week..

You definitely won’t get any hating on Monroe from me. Played you guys in 2016, probably the coldest game I ever attended. It was a rare occasion where I actually walked onto the field after the game. There were plenty of “dap ups” between the players, and the HC was class personified. Not only did he shake hands with our HC, he congratulated individual Shelby players as well. I spoke about it on here, after that game. If Monroe does win, I will be definitely pulling for them to bring the 2A state title back to the 704.

Well you got one thing out of all of that correct. McGowan did not play. The rest is totally false. JV Qb hurt his foot in the JV game vs Shelby and did not play. The QB that started the first quarter vs Crest and went back to receiver where he played last year was Graham Warlick. That is who played QB against Monroe. We had both starting RB's in the game. Zavion Wilson started the game and Goodson came in as well. Max Davis also had a few carries including from the Wildcat. Burns did have players out and have a lot of 10th graders so the JV comment was somewhat accurate. Shelby has a much better chance than we did but if the QB has any issues running, the wildcat may be a great option Friday. Monroe had a lot of trouble with penalties. If Shelby takes advantage of that they could very well win. There is no upset in this game. If Monroe wins, they were favored. If Shelby wins would anyone really be surprised?
Thanks for the clarification. Rumors spread fast. I had heard that the JV was QBing and asked why didn't Warlick go back to QB since he started the season there and was told he was used as a receiver in different spots. Also heard the RB1 was definitely out...smh. On a 2A team, 1 player can make a huge difference especially if they play both ways. I am sure the loss of McGowan played a big role.

Whatever you feel makes you cope better.

Would have blown Burns out, regardless. They were severely limited, due to not having a true quarterback, literally a linebacker playing quarterback. Had no passing game whatsoever. That formula gets you a round, two if you’re lucky.

Be careful that what you say concurs with what you have said in the past. Also, that what you are saying may not be refuted by your own words in the future. Are you from Missouri?

You’re only active in the forum, because Shelby is still playing, and you are hoping and waiting on us to lose, so you can chirp . You normally disappear when Reidsville loses. After we beat you guys in 2021, you fell completely off the grid, to the point that I created a thread to see if anyone amongst Da Ville’s posters knew you, and could possibly do a wellness check on you.

You were “ghost”, account inactive, and it felt cold just thinking about you. I can’t blame you for hating, though, and looking for Shelby to lose, so ready to rub our noses in it. Heck, I’m still smoking good on my end. That good ole “ram pack” still blowing strong.

Shelby has a rich tradition and a tremendous community following. Not just talking about game attendance, but the championship fabric that lives 365 days per year. I have always been impressed with their discipline and unselfish team first attitude. I think coach Wilbanks has done an incredible job and this Monroe contest should be a thriller to watch.

You’re alright with me for a Crest dude.😁

Literally what my next post was going to say. Took the letters right off my damn fingers. To be in good standing with the posters on here is my goal. Welcome to being accepted amongst the Shelby fans. Never and I mean NEVER say they could lose. EVER!!

I appreciate your honest takes and full transparency. I think Shelby has definitely progressed, and can win, if we play mistake free football. I also think we could lose by two tds. We are young in critical spots.

Monroe looks like a vintage, primed championship Shelby team of the past. They are senior laden. They are strong against the pass, so the Shelby running game will be critical. I’m prepared for whatever, but wasn’t going to let 7 weeks of playing “Cherryville” influence my confidence. Monroe is a different animal.
